I think in alex's mind he was "problem solving".. They were now problems that needed to be taken care of

[@joannebates6940]

Paul’s blood alcohol was tested after the boat accident in the hospital by blood and it was .255

[@loditx7706]

@Joanne Bates: Since it was tested at a minimum at least an hour after the collision, and possibly more, it is safe to assume that his actual alcohol level at the time of the crash was higher than what the result at the hospital indicated. Too bad he was such an alcoholic that he was able to function, even if not well. A normal person would have passed out or died of alcohol poisoning and there would have been no boat accident.

Great interview thanks

[@Bessie66]

He’s never asked how the development is going finding his wife and son’s murderers?

[@jayneroberson-blume804]

Huge shout out to the "podcast" I am sure MMP appreciates the recognition!

[@bellpeppergreen8602]

You forgot your insurance company lords of London pay out 4 million by Alex statement

[@anneroy4560]

Lloyds of London ...

[@annied9864]

Look out sofa people

In every system capitalistic or not, class justice is a fact, also happens in Belgium.. the death of Sande Dia..

[@Liongradguy2020]

Alec is not pronounced as Alex. The "c" is pronounced as a "k."

[@bellpeppergreen8602]

Dude you are stating facts alex is in his 50

[@beneire6955]

Pity we didn’t all this data analysis in the Carl Bridgewater case which David Wilson covered aswell

[@kathytrawick3554]

The grammar police has to point out the family (singular) 'WAS' NOT the family (plural) "were"

[@deborahbeltz718]

We assume they were killed by alex, this is let,'s get them because we think they should pay because they have money's, paul has never been charged because they never prove he was driving the boat that was jn question, so because he may not, if he hadn't been as drunk he was he can't prove he wasn't driving the boat , but Conner was the one driving the boat and the cops knew it

[@loditx7706]

Great grandson of the original Randolph Murdaugh, possibly great great grandson. I think great great.They all seem off. At least when asked his opinion the current Randolph said “I DON’T KNOW.” The whole family is NOT convinced of his innocence and his brother had the guts to say it.

[@HZ-fg9sf]

This is sloppy reporting and research. Clean up your facts. A lot of things stated as fact have not been confirmed. While I personally believe in certain allegations, I think one should choose their words carefully when trying to cover a story if they do so with journalistic integrity.

[@loditx7706]

I agree. Very sloppy reporting. Careless and shameful.

[@mariapilarme]

Oh shut up! He his convicted so far of two deaths.

[@loditx7706]

@@mariapilarme yeah, with years of appeals his firm will do for him, while they deposit protection money into other inmates accounts. And he’ll get frequent Outings for all his financial trials. He’ll just be bully of the jail, but I do hope someone takes him on as he gets more and more bloated.

[@kimberleeturner8475]

When this video first came out comments was turned off. I heard him say atleast 5 wrong things he said. I agree with your comment and couldn't have said it better myself.

[@mariedewitt5033]

I think Alec had an insurance policy on the house keeper who fell down the stairs

[@scurbbyboi5576]

I'd like for police to question Buster about Stephen Smith, no time limit on murder. From what I've seen what I think happened was they picked him up and Stephen spoke about his affair with Buster so to defend Busters honor Stephen was silenced. I think it was a passion murder and I believe Buster knows alot but it doesn't seem to be any evidence of an interrogation of Buster. This family has gotten away with so much and I believe still they are being protected law enforcement officers who have helped cover stuff up are also at risk so yeah there's still a large amount of protection going on. I also believe the 2 brothers of Alec know alot too. Nobody's talking they are trying to put time into the mix hoping eyes will stop watching them. Alec is an acceptable loss to keep the rest of the family afloat

[@deborahbeltz718]

Buster was cleared a long time ago, so nowvthey want to say Alex did it, come on, people they don't know who did it at all

[@wisdomseeker3362]

I do believe Buster could've been driving and maybe had friends with him and they saw Stephen after a party as he ran out of gas...Buster turned around and hit him in the head as he drove by or he got out of the car acting like he had extra gas in his trunk but instead got a tire iron out of his trunk and hit him in the head with it. Horrible and evil .

[@charlottelee3727]

Good job what people make up in their head can't be used as legal proof.

[@kathytrawick3554]

Alex's name is pronounced 'Alec' according to the man himself

[@mariedewitt5033]

Now he has an id number

[@MsTERRY4658]

Je could of divorce why murder? The system faile

[@semvlasveld8799]

He did not thought, they where above the law, Buster with Stephen Smith, Paul with Mallory Beach, Alex with the nanny, housekeeper, the stories from the woman in human traffick ring. Bunch of psychopaths.
